Are the sins forgiven for whoever says, "SubhanAllah" 33 times, "Alhamdulillah" 33 times, and "Allahu Akbar" 33 times, and concludes with "La ilaha illa Allah wahdahu la sharika lahu, lahul mulku wa lahul hamdu, wa huwa 'ala kulli shayin qadir," inclusive of all sins, including major sins?
The aforementioned regarding the virtue of Tasbih (subhanAllah), Tahmid (alhamdulillah), and Tahlil (la ilaha illallah) after prayer is authentically reported from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. The virtue is attained by whoever recites this remembrance after the prescribed prayer, which is: "Whoever glorifies Allah (says SubhanAllah) thirty-three times after every prayer, and praises Allah (says Alhamdulillah) thirty-three times, and magnifies Allah (says Allahu Akbar) thirty-three times – that is ninety-nine. Then says to complete the hundred: 'There is no god but Allah, alone without partner, to Him belongs sovereignty and to Him belongs praise, and He is over all things competent' – his sins will be forgiven, even if they are like the foam of the sea." Narrated by Muslim. The sins that this remembrance expiates are minor sins only.
